The down sides are :-
Phone needs to be on for alarm to work & no snooze button.
No telephone sounding ring tones
Record time not sufficient to record own ring tone.
Apart from that cool.

all but the best when the one at the other side hears nothing more than a metallic hollow sound/noise, does any one have the same experience?

I just couldnt wait and save up for an ericsson t68 could I.Now im stuck with this thing for a year on contract.Cant wait to unlock my final software 7110.U never miss the flexibilty of a nokia until you havent got it.I agree with some other reviews...the ring tones are crap and i just hate not having vibrate and ring at the same time.I dont even want to talk about the clunk,click and snap charger or the awkward handsfree connection.And the same goes for not being able to save, send or receive bookmarks and business cards and ringtones and numbers and the list goes on.Oh for wanting a smaller phone!
I'll just have to put up with the missing features and like its quirkiness.It is a beautiful looking and compact phone after all.

Just got the z7, I like the fatness compared to my 8210, and the phone book is much better. Shame about the tones, I think I might have to record on of my nokia tones! Shame about the Vibration, Can't even figure out how to have it on!

This phone is great!
No other matches its style, the 3D menu is great and the e-mail features are very convinient.
The JogDial is great to use and makes navigating the menu really easy.
The screen is great quality and although the standard ring tones are a little 'unique' you can record your own!
The flip is very solid and the battery life is excellent.
It has a great blackjack game and the 'fatness' is just right (for me) as it gives it a solid feel
p.s when replying to txts hold down the del button for a second to clear the whole message in an instant, rather then pressing del 40 odd times :)

Right here is what the phone is really like.
IT IS NOT (underlined) FAT! OK compared to a 8210 it might be, but try using a 8210 - the buttons are too small, it looks crap and feels worst!
This phone is the best phone I have had so far, and I have had many. OK so there are some flaws, like the ringer and vibrate function, and wallpapers and ring tones.
But ALL in ALL - this phone has STYLE that most other phones lack. Has an AWESOME battery (have u guys seen how TINY it is!!!).
Go buy one. For all those who have complained here, go get a NOKIA u Nokidiots!

I don't like the fact that there is a)no option avali to switch the vibrate on/off whilst also having the ringer on, also when you reply to a text msg the original msg you received appears and you have to clear the screen of it b4 you type your rwply or it will send it back to the person who wrote it to you in the first place !! ??

I think sony are a bunch of cock suckers. They should stick to hifi. I spent good money on my z7 and I don't use it any more. I went out and bought an ericson t68, great phone with colour screen. Battery lasts longer than the z7 also. So Sony GET YOUR ACT TOGETHER!

a huge backwards step me thinks. A phone that you can't hear ring. hmmm....

I've got a J5 and my mates are all pissy because I can't ever hear it ring when they call me unless I have it sellotaped to the side of my head (much too quiet - polyphonic is bollucks). The vibrate feature is best used only when you'll be keeping the phone down your pants as you won't feel it otherwise. So, looking at the Z7 it has the same ring tones and vibrate - and it's thicker. I wouldn't use this phone if it was given to me!! it sucks!!

I dont have this phone but I was thinking of getting it but not anymore. Apart from what others have said, it also does not have the built in answer machine of the Z5! Sony seem to have botched this one, its crazy to make a phone bigger/heavier than its predecessor! its not as "cute" as the Z5 and who wants Polyphonic Ringers anyway? Oh and I dont like the curvy flap, it would be better square. Sony you have messed up a bit !
